TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[Bruce Wayne Attorney at Law]

I got the email with their rejection (for the unsuccessful AC) during another AC. Somehow managed to power through the rest of the day, and now

I am really excited to say that I have gotten a TC with Links!

did a TI the other day and lowkey tweaking it feels kinda personal to get cut for a phone call that lasted 15 minutes haha. it was so odd compared to an interview, i basically felt like i was monologuing answers and then we'd move on.. is this normal?

I much prefer it to the online tests as a filter, to be honest. The nice part is it's two-way and based on an actual conversation with you (even if it's an unusual set-up).

But yes that's pretty normal. It'll feel weird because you have little sense of how they are reacting to what you are saying. I'm sure you did great!

Thank you! Yeah I hate the tests!!

Has anyone else not heard from Faegre post app?

 

[TCchaser]

Has anyone else not heard for CMS' Grad Solicitor Apprenticeship post application?

Has anyone heard from Lee Bolton Monier-Williams? The website says their Vacation Scheme is running from 14th - 16th April so guessing it will be a PFO at this point.
